Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Assays were run on a Synergy H1 Multi-Mode plate reader (BioTek, USA) with excitation at 340 nm and emission at 615 nm. For time-resolved fluorescence, a 100 µs delay before reading and a 200 µs reading time were employed. The assay was performed in a white 384-well plate (PerkinElmer). A 25 µl solution consisting of 3.2 µM EcDsbA and 2 mM GSSG (positive control) or of 3 µM FL α-DsbA2 or α-DsbA2ΔN and 2 mM GSSG in 50 mM MES, 50 mM NaCl, 2 mM EDTA pH 5.5 was added to the wells. The assay was initiated by the addition of 25 µl 16 µM peptide (in 50 mM MES, 50 mM NaCl, 2 mM EDTA pH 5.5) to each well. The peptide substrate was CQQGFDGTQNSCK, with europium bound to a 1,4,7,10-tetraazacyclododecane-1,4,7,10-tetraacetic acid (DOTA) group amide-coupled to the N-terminus, and a methyl­coumarin amide-coupled to the ∊-amino group of the C-terminal lysine (AnaSpec, USA). Reconstitution of the peptide substrate solution is described in Walden et al. (2012 ▸ ). Measurements were carried out in triplicate using three different protein batches and the data shown are the mean ± SD error from these three measurements.

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
K-Ras4B:RAF kinase interaction assays were performed as previously described (16 (link)). Purified RAF-1 RBD was labeled with maleimide PEG biotin (Pierce) following the manufacturer’s recommended protocol. Purified flag-tagged K-Ras4B (1 mg/mL) were loaded with GMPPNP (Sigma-Aldrich) by incubating for 2 hours at 25°C with a 50-fold excess of nucleotide in the presence of alkaline phosphatase (Thermo-Fisher). RAF–RBD–biotin was diluted to a final concentration of 40 nM and Flag-K-Ras4B to 10 nM in assay buffer (20 mM Tris pH 7.5, 100 mM NaCl, 1 mM MgCl2, 5% glycerol, 0.5% BSA) and added to individual wells of a low-volume white 384-well plate (PerkinElmer). Complexes were disrupted by addition of a dilution series (2,000 nM to 0.5 nM) of each mutant K-Ras4B protein. The assay was developed by addition of streptavidin donor and anti-flag acceptor AlphaScreen beads (10 μg/mL). Alpha signal was measured after overnight incubation at 4°C. All readings were performed in triplicate.

An AlphaScreen® (Perkin Elmer) assay was used to measure the affinity of KRASP34R:nucleotide complexes for the Ras Binding Domain (RBD) of the Raf protein kinase. Purified RAF kinase RBD was labeled with maleimide PEG biotin (Pierce) following the manufacturer's protocol. Purified flag-tagged KRAS (1 mg/ml) and KRASP34R mutant were loaded with GMPPNP (Sigma-Aldrich) by incubating for 2 hr at 25° C with a 50-fold excess of nucleotide in the presence of alkaline phosphatase (ThermoFisher). RAF–RBD–biotin was diluted to a final concentration of 40 nmol/L and Flag-KRAS to 10 nmol/L in assay buffer (20 mmol/L Tris pH 7.5, 100 mmol/L NaCl, 1 mmol/L MgCl2, 5% glycerol, 0.5% BSA) and added to individual wells of a low volume white 384-well plate (PerkinElmer). Complexes were disrupted by addition of untagged WT KRAS or KRASP34R mutant preloaded with GMPPNP over a range of concentrations. The assay was developed by addition of streptavidin donor and anti-flag acceptor AlphaScreen beads (10 mg/ml). Alpha signal was measured after overnight incubation at 4°C.

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Compound YXY-4F was dissolved in 100% dimethylsulfoxide (DMSO) at 10 mM. The solution was diluted to the desired concentrations immediately before each experiment. The kinase activities of the purified PI3Ks were determined with the PI3K HTRF Assay (Millipore) according to the manufacturer’s protocol. Briefly, the EC80 concentration of each enzyme containing 10 μM PIP2 was incubated in assay buffer on a white 384-well plate (Perkin Elmer). After incubation for 30 min at room temperature, the reaction was initiated by addition of ATP and terminated by addition of the stop solution and detection mix. The final concentration of ATP was 5 μM for p110α. The plate was then sealed and incubated overnight at room temperature. The intensity of the light emission was measured by an EnVision Multilabel Reader (PerkinElmer) in TR-FRET mode (excitation at 320 nm and emission at 665 nm) as previously described42 (link). The IC50 values43 (link) were calculated by fitting the data to a logistic curve using the GraphPad Prism 6 software.

After replating, cells were treated with either DMSO only or the indicated compounds in increasing doses from 2 pM–10 μM. After 18-h incubation, treated cells were developed with Brite Lite Plus (Perkin Elmer) and read in 384-well Luminescence Perkin Elmer EnVision Multilabel plate reader.

AlphaScreen Technology was used to assess the interactions between GST-E6, GST-caspase 8, His-E6AP, and His-caspase 8. Binding assays were performed in white 384-well plates (Perkin-Elmer) in a total volume of 25 μl as previously described.33 (link) Briefly, 5 μl (50 ng) of GST-E6 and 5 μl (87.5 ng) of His-caspase 8 were included in each reaction mixture with 5 μl blocking buffer (0.5 mg BSA, 0.5% Tween 20 in PBS) in the absence or presence of 10 μM of each test chemical. Members of the library were present at 10 μM in DMSO. After a 1-h incubation of the mixture at room temperature, 5 μl donor beads and 5 μl acceptor beads (Perkin-Elmer) were added to each well according to the manufacturer's protocol. The mixture was incubated in the dark at room temperature overnight, and the emitted signal was detected using the Envision Multilabel plate reader (Perkin-Elmer). In the presence of test chemicals, the binding affinity was calculated as a percentage of the binding in the presence of carrier only (DMSO).

About PubCompare

Our mission is to provide scientists with the largest repository of trustworthy protocols and intelligent analytical tools, thereby offering them extensive information to design robust protocols aimed at minimizing the risk of failures.

We believe that the most crucial aspect is to grant scientists access to a wide range of reliable sources and new useful tools that surpass human capabilities.

However, we trust in allowing scientists to determine how to construct their own protocols based on this information, as they are the experts in their field.
